Iä! Iä! Cthulhu Blog'n'!

This short piece is actually a reading comprehension test on Ace's Open Blogger instruction email – specifically, the part that reads:

Rule #1: Don't screw up.
Rule #2: In case of any questions, refer to Rule #1.
Rule #3: What did I tell you?

I'm posting it now because – at least, in theory – there's still time to fix the blog and revoke my Open Blogger invitation before I gin up any significant amount of content. This also responds to another portion of the Open Blogger instruction sheet: “Try putting up a post, if you have some quickie, tomorrow, to see if you've got the gist of it.” – although I'm still somewhat unsure about the relationship between blogging and “quickie”. [Did anyone else get the same thing in their email???]

I have great plans for an extended post tomorrow about new developments in the application of rhetorical devices and their effects on postprandial diversions....
